长胡子的蝙蝠,Pteronotus parnellii parnellii,它们一生中的大部分时间都在树皮上度过,并使用它们的听觉系统FBR声学通信作为Reil作为回声定位。它们交流声音的声谱图显示,这个物种产生了丰富多样的叫声。这些呼叫由单独和/或组合发出的33种不同类型的离散声音或音节中的一个或多个组成。这些音节可进一步分为19个单音节、14个复合音节和3个子音节。简单的音节由固定频率(Cf)、频率(Fm)的典型几何图形组成。调制)和使用统计标准定量定义的NB(噪声突发)声音。复合词由单音节或子音节连接而成,没有任何静音间隔。与刻板印象中的回声定位脉冲相比,大多数音节类型在物理结构上表现出很大的内在变化。音节域是在多个参数的基础上定义的;尽管这些参数可以折叠成三个维度,捕捉不同类型音节之间测量到的99%的差异。对多音节构式的时间分析揭示了音节转换的几条句法规则。
Mustached bats, Pteronotus parnellii parnellii spend most of their lives in the bark and use their auditory system fbr acoustic communication as Reil as echolocation. The sound spectrograms of their communication sounds or ''calls'' revealed that this species produces a rich variety of calls. These calls consist of one or more of the 33 different types of discrete sounds or ''syllables'' that are emitted singly and/or in combination. These syllables can be further classified as 19 simple syllables, 14 composites, and three subsyllables. Simple syllables consist of characteristic geometric patterns of CF (constant frequency), FM (frequency. modulation), and NB (noise burst) sounds that are defined quantitatively using statistical criteria. Composites consist of simple syllables or subsyllables conjoined without any silent interval. Most syllable types exhibit a large intrinsic variation in their physical structure compared to the stereotypic echolocation pulses. Syllable domains are defined on the basis of multiple parameters; although these can be collapsed onto three dimensions that capture 99% of the measured variation among different types of syllables. Temporal analysis of multisyllabic constructs reveals several syntactical rules for syllable transitions.
